Although I'm not a sampler person, I do occasionally watch the videos about the samplers that Hands Across the Sea charts for sale. This week Nicola showed off a hand made seam ripper that she prefers to the traditional type. It's easier for her to hold and doesn't stress her neck as much.

If you are interested, these can be purchased from Alan's Pen Making in Australia. Contact Alan through his Facebook page. You can pick the handle color and also specify whether you want an awl/seam ripper style or the big-small seam ripper style, although Alan was sold out of the big-small seam ripper style the end of July.
